const char const *f;
Ok so that means that I can't do pointer arithmetic or change the contents of what the pointer points to.

So
const char *f;
means that I can't change where the pointer points to but I can change the contents of what it points to.

So does that mean that
char const *f allows me to do pointer arithmetic but I can't write to whatever f points to?

const considered harmful

The other way around.

Use it.

This thread has peacefully ended, it seems.

char const *x
syntax error

char *const x
You know, it was an interesting experiment, but I can see why this ``declare it as you'd use it'' concept didn't catch on.

- const char const *f; is a syntax error.
- const char *f; means you can modify f but not *f.
- char const *f; is the same as the above.
- char *const f; means you can modify *f but not f (except for initialization).
- const char *const f; (or char const *const f;) means you can modify neither *f nor f (except for initialization).
